“I hid so well that she could tell that I was not ordinary. It was clear she was very smart. However, it’s not beneficial for us to go against the Blood Demon Pavilion Master now. So, I won’t interfere in this matter. When Ji Wanwan comes again, I’ll explain the situation to her. You don’t have to interfere anymore,” Su Qian said indifferently,
“Yes, I will take my leave.” Gu Qingyou bowed and left Su Qian’s room.
The next morning, Ji Wanwan appeared at the Su family’s house on time.
This troubled Qian Rong, who didn’t know what to do, so she went to Su Qian to report this matter.
Su Qian had already gotten up and was sitting in front of the mirror to dress up. After listening to Qian Rong’s report, she said, “Don’t worry, I’ll go and meet her.”
Qian Rong was relieved that Su Qian had personally come out. She obediently waited for Su Qian to get dressed before following her to the hall.
In the hall, Ji Wanwan, who had diarrhea all night because of last night’s meal, sat obediently like a frosted cabbage. It was only when she heard Su Qian’s footsteps that she hurriedly stood up and looked at Su Qian excitedly. “Miss Su, hello.”
“Miss Ji, I’ve never liked to beat around the bush. If you have something to say, just say it,” Su Qian said indifferently,
This time, Ji Wanwan did not beat around the bush. Instead, she said straightforwardly, “Miss Su, I want to invite you to the sub-branch pavilion to save our sub-branch Pavilion Master.”
“Miss Ji, you flatter me. I’m just a commoner and don’t have that kind of ability.” Su Qian rejected coldly.
Ji Wanwan said anxiously, “Miss Su, don’t hide it from me. I can tell that you’re not ordinary and must be exceptional! As long as you save the sub-branch Pavilion Master, I’ll do anything you want.”
“Miss Ji, don’t make things difficult for me. Everyone in the imperial capital knows that 1, Su Qian, am not capable. It’s not that I don’t want to help, but I can’t.” Su Qian said firmly.
Upon hearing Su Qian’s unwavering words, Ji Wanwan’s heart instantly sank. “Miss Su, are you really unwilling to help?”
“It’s not that I’m unwilling, but I don’t have the ability,” Su Qian said bluntly.
Ji Wanwan looked at Su Qian with a complicated expression and finally took a deep breath. “Okay, I understand. Since Miss is unwilling, I won’t force you. In addition, this gift can be considered as compensation for disturbing Miss for the past two days. I’ll leave first.”
Seeing Ji Wanwan casually place the gift box she carried with her on the table, Su Qian gave Qian Rong a look.
Qian Rong stepped forward and opened the box. “Madam, this is a third-grade elixir.”
“Quite generous of her. She doesn’t want to fall out with me.” The emotions in Su Qian’s eyes disappeared in an instant. “Qian Rong, keep the elixir.”
“Yes.” Qian Rong put away the gift, turned around, and left.
Su Qian did not take Ji Wanwan’s matter to heart at all. After settling this matter, she returned to her room to accompany the children for breakfast.
Su Qian had been busy with the Su family’s matters for the past few days, so she hadn’t spent time with the children for a few days. Now that she had some free time, she played with the children for two days.
It wasn’t until the next night when Xiao Yan sent a carriage to pick her up that she got up and said goodbye to the children.
“Be good and wait at home. Mother will be back soon.” Knowing that Xiao Yan was already waiting outside the gate, Su Qian didn’t want to keep him waiting. After kissing the children’s little faces, she turned around to leave.
Su Qingqing grabbed her hand. “Mother, Qingqing wants to go with you too..”
